I'll be the short, muscular old guy with a mustache wearing a white seaworld cap in the line to get a drink. I'm going to buy park tickets so I can be in with the stay and screamers on 9/29 and 9/30, but prolly won't get to the park till 2-3 pm. And yep, I got express passes for both nights. Wouldn't do without them. The only thing I won't use them for is to get front row B&T, because I did that last year and you can't hear well if you're sitting too close to the speakers. If you see me, come over and say whassup.

61 hours until I leave Providence for Orlando, 24 hours after that I'll be at HHN XVI!!! Hooo-rahh!!!

I'm not sure what you mean by "out of towners", but I think I qualify. I would rather have it kind of crowded, half the fun is watching the reactions and hearing people scream. My wife screamed her butt off last year and I was laughing so hard I had to sit down for 10 minutes after each house to catch my breath. Express passes are well worth the money. As for PUTS, I've seen the movie a few times and if they do the house right, it could be real cool!! But right is a big word, we'll have to see. I'm going on 9/29 and 9/30. Can't wait!!!!!!

I guess you're right. Too bad. You'd think that they could find something from those years to bring back. Oh well.

Yeah, Eddie is cool, I'm looking forward to Run house too! 2001 was kind of a strange year for those of us who had to fly down, for obvious reasons. The fighter jets patrolling over Orlando made me even jumpier. Deadtropolis is the scare zone I'm really waiting for, can't get enough zombies. But what's with the 97-98 drawer? There don't seem to be any changes there, unless I've overlooked something. 97 is kind of special to me, as that was my first HHN while I was on honeymoon with my 2nd wife.

That's cool with me. Let's arrange a place in the stay and scream area where anybody who wants to meet up on 9/30 can do so. Or maybe somewhere in HHN area after the GP comes in so anyone not in the stay and scream area can join us and say whassup. Anybody with an idea, post it or PM me.

There will be a special Arrival show at the beginning of the night with Darkness and all four of the icon characters. Then, throughout the night, each icon will do a show by themselves, sacrificing guests in a similar format to the Terra Throne. I could be wrong, but I don't think they'll start the first arrival show until they start letting the GP in, so if you're a stay and screamer just get back to that area by 6:30 or so and you should be able to see the first Arrival. If anybody has more precise info, please let us know.

I know. Ive been looking forward to this years HHN since I left the event last year haha. Mega-dittoes guys, can't wait.

I'm flying to Orlando Thursday night 9/28 and I'll be at HHN on 9/29 and 9/30. Didn't buy stay and scream, but if you have park tickets and an FFP, can you stay with the stay and screamers when the park closes? Actually not sure if I want to do that but it would be nice to have the option. Anybody know the answer? Also, what are the rules for photos and videos during HHN? Are there any restrictions on where you can take pictures? And if anyone has any advice on how to get the best pictures in a low-light situation like HHN, that would be cool too.

I agree with your approach to HHN. I've been in 97, 2000,2001,2004,and 2005, but after the first year I started getting express passes. I like to do a quick run of all the houses without the express pass then go back and express it if the line becomes too long. Last year I went on the 30th and 31st of October, the crowds weren't that bad. This year I'm going on 9/29 and 9/30. Since you can use frequent fear pass for that weekend and the express is only $30 and $50 respectively, it will actually be a fairly cheap year for me. Still havent decided if I'm staying offsite or at RP, which is my usual. In any case, I can't wait!!
